    If you want to put carbon bits on it, I can recommend a Syntace P6 post. And my choice of lightweight saddle would be SLR.

    Boone ring and cog?

    I'd say salsa pro moto flat carbons, silly light and very wide so great for hauling on up climbs. I love them on my 29er (145g for 25.4x660mm)

    light seatpost/saddle combo sdg I-post in carbon with an i -fly saddle. about 370g (ish) for the lot with a 400mm 27.2 seatpost

    tyres- racing ralphs 2.4 front 2.25 back as they are massive and a 2.4 won't fit in some frames on the rear.

    Ashima air rotors cheap good and 84g for 160mm

    that's my choice of bits for a standard light build, all weights are actual on my scales because I'm a geek 😀

    I'd go for Stans 355 or Olympic rims as they are lighter and ralphs and tubeless go very well together

    Its going to be a nice build.

    29er 355's are a very good choice. I run them tubeless at 22psi with Maxxis Crossmarks on my 29er SS and I am amazed by the amount of grip I get even in the winter with a summer tyre!

    I run a EC70 bar with bar ends and while not that wide (580mm) its worked fine for me.

    My guess would be a Ragley TD1 frame with that fork length ?
